Lehky! Lehky! Lehky!
Let's hope he's not qualified by COL, and habs sign him!!


It'd be moronic of Sakic if he doesn't QO him lol. He has some cap room to re-shape his top 9 this summer.

Lol, that’d be bad asset management but I’d love Lehky to come back, he’ll always be in our hearts because of THE goal

Their real sale was last year and last summer (Reinhart, Ristolainen). They don't have many expendable & valuable pieces.


Colin Miller?

My Top3 Winners of the deadline week

- ANA: great trades all around, not a single L for them. They got a great set of futures to build around.
- MTL: they got insane hauls in total for pretty average players. The market truly made favors for them. Very good start for Hughes' reign.
- MIN: solid moves all around - probably the best job done out of all teams actually buying instead of selling.

My Top3 Losers of the deadline week

- OTT: Hamonic trade was the worst of the bunch. Also paid more for Sanford than they got in return. Only decent move was the Paul trade.
- NYI: They did absolutely nothing, only re-signed their vets. They didn't solve any problems, but re-created them.
- EDM: They needed to actually strengthen that team but only made a couple of depth moves of questionable value.

Overall thoughts

- It truly was a sellers market.

They paid a premium for him, so I hope He + Edmonton enjoy their time together. We shouldn't be mad or sad.

Am still saying the return should be along the lines of Brännström+2023 1st (top5 protected).

It follows the trajectory of what other top-6 forward pending RFAs have gotten.

I agree . That’s exactly the type of move that would be great. We just need to pay a 2nd to Arizona to get rid of Zaitsev and buyout White

I'm sad to see a loyal hab to leave. No matter if it's a 1st or connor mcdavid that kulak returns, nothing will take away my sadness.

Cap wise you don't even need to move Zaitsev. Bury him to AHL if he's crap.

Yeah, he'll make a very good 3rd pairing defender with Edmonton. Perhaps he will play top 4, but I think he's best fitted as a bottom pairing defender.

IMO he's going to sign him to a 3 year deal ( 3.5-4 mill x 3 ?) and let Nichuskin ,Burakovsky and Kadri walk.

Yeah, honestly surprised there was a team who took him

One of Lou's more notable mistakes next to Marleau
